It’s a space to connect with like-minded people, exchange real travel stories, and explore new perspectives on places, cultures, and the journey itself. A place to share your experience, learn from others, and meet potential travel partners for future adventures 🤝 **If you’re tired of:** — Overpacked events — Meaningless small talks — Awkward standing with a glass waiting for someone to make an eye contact And you’d rather talk about: — the moment a place changed you — your best travel story and present it to everyone — a culture shock that shifted your perspective Then this is your room. It’s an intimate, structured, high-quality space designed for meaningful connection. ### **What to expect** 🧠 **Interactive quiz** 🧉 **Mate ceremony** 🎤 **Story sharing** — tell a short story about your most recent or favorite adventure *(contact us in advance and we’ll provide a simple PPT template)* 💬 **Open networking** and meaningful conversations ### **Who it’s for** 🌱 Curious travelers who value culture, context, and real experience 🧭 Solo adventurers looking for meaningful connections and future travel buddies 🌎 People who see travel as a way to connect, learn, and grow — not just move from place to place 🕹 **HOW TO JOIN** Spots are limited to keep the atmosphere personal and high-quality. **To attend:** Send a message to confirm your spot.

Two left feet are welcome! ✔️ Inspiring movement invitations that awaken your inner child and reveal hidden potentials If you’re ready to dive into the unknown and meet others in a direct, playful, and unpredictable way, this is your call!

Make Friends: Not Small Talk - Deep talks & Coffee | 🌎Culture Shock Therapy
Español Abajo **☕️ Coffee Talk: Where Conversations Are Stronger Than the Coffee ☕️** Had enough of awkward small talk and silent social gatherings? This is your chance to break free. Join us for a night of meaningful conversations about life, dreams, existential crises, and why we keep procrastinating our goals. \*\* What to expect?\*\* ✔️ Thought-provoking questions (but not too deep, we promise). ✔️ Interesting people with zero interest in discussing traffic. ✔️ Interactive dynamics that push you out of your comfort zone—without feeling like a job interview. If you're ready for an evening of deep conversations, great coffee, and a dash of sarcastic humor, save your spot before you regret it (again). **Where?** Diletto – Perón 4217 (because coffee without great conversations is just wasted caffeine). **How much?** $5,000 ARS / $5 USD (yes, genuine connections have a price, but they’re worth every cent). **FOLLOW US** **INSTAGRAM: @CULTURE.SHOCKTHERAPY** [https://www.instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==] *** **☕️Coffee Talk: Donde las Conversaciones Son Más Fuertes que el Café☕️** Si ya tuviste suficiente de las mismas charlas de ascensor y los silencios incómodos en reuniones sociales, este es tu evento. Aquí venimos a hablar de todo lo que realmente importa: la vida, los sueños, las crisis existenciales y por qué seguimos procrastinando nuestras metas. \*\* ¿Qué puedes esperar?\*\* ✔️ Preguntas que te harán pensar (pero no demasiado, prometemos). ✔️ Gente interesante con cero ganas de hablar del tráfico. ✔️ Dinámicas interactivas que te sacarán de tu zona de confort sin hacerte sentir en una entrevista de trabajo. Si estás listo para una tarde de conversaciones profundas con café en mano y un toque de humor sarcástico, reserva tu lugar antes de que te arrepientas (otra vez). **¿Dónde?** Diletto – Perón 4217 (porque el café sin buenas conversaciones es solo cafeína desperdiciada). **¿Cuánto?** $5.000 ARS / $5 USD (sí, las conexiones genuinas tienen su precio, pero valen cada centavo). **FOLLOW US** **INSTAGRAM: @CULTURE.SHOCKTHERAPY** [https://www.instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==]

Confidence in Bloom: How Creativity Builds Confidence
Confidence in Bloom: How Creativity Builds Confidence
**Confidence in Bloom: How Creativity Builds Confidence** What happens when creativity becomes an intentional practice? In this month’s Confidence Lab, we’ll gather at **Petals That Inspire: The Flourish Studio** for an evening exploring the connection between creativity and confidence. How making with our hands, engaging our senses, and allowing space for expression can shift how we see ourselves and what we believe is possible. Our featured speaker, **Amanda Lorenzetti**, owner of Petals That Inspire, will share how creativity has shaped her own confidence journey and why creative environments play such a powerful role in well-being, resilience, and personal growth. Drawing from her work leading an experience-driven floral studio and a community-centered workforce development program, Amanda will reflect on creativity as both a personal and collective catalyst. Amanda will also guide us through a **hands-on floral design experience**, creating a fresh arrangement in a wide mouth mason jar. No prior floral experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to engage the process. This evening is an invitation to slow down, create, and reconnect with the part of yourself that grows through care, attention, and imagination. You’ll leave with a floral arrangement to take home, and a deeper understanding of how confidence can be cultivated through creative practices. **Featured Speaker: Amanda Lorenzetti** Amanda Lorenzetti is the owner and founder of [Petals That Inspire](https://www.petalsthatinspire.com/) and The Flourish Studio, a social enterprise florist based in Columbus, Ohio. She brings more than a decade of experience in wedding and event sales, paired with hands-on expertise in floral and event design. Amanda’s connection to the floral industry began early, spending time alongside her godmother, a professional florist on the East Coast. After earning her business degree, she returned to her hometown in Connecticut to work as a floral and event designer, blending creative artistry with strong operational and client-focused skills. In 2020, Amanda returned to the floral industry with a renewed purpose, driven by a desire to build a business rooted in creativity, community impact, and sustainability. During this pivotal time, she founded Petals That Inspire—an innovative floral concept that reimagines the traditional florist model by combining event florals, workshops, and experiential offerings with a mission-centered approach to workforce development. Today, Petals That Inspire is a thriving social enterprise known for its thoughtful design, educational experiences, and commitment to empowering young adults facing barriers to entry in the workforce. Amanda is deeply passionate about building businesses that are both profitable and purpose-driven, and she leverages her strong business acumen to create a scalable & sustainable model that inspires creativity while giving back to the community. **What is Confidence Lab?** Confidence Lab is a monthly community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here. Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticket—we want you to join us.*
Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** *Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation* Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification. You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written. This talk will cover: --What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t) --How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows --Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development --Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects. **YouTube Link** TBA
